Introduction of Guests (13 May 2026)

From Hansard (13 May 2026)

 

Amy-Louise Roberts; Rural Saskatoon Home-Schooled Students

Hon. Terry Jenson: — Well thank you, Mr. Speaker. To you and through you this afternoon, I’d like to welcome a guest that’s joining us in the west gallery: Amy-Louise Roberts. So if Amy can give us a quick wave. Amy is part of the Regina Youth Advisory Team, Mr. Speaker. Her work with the team, along with the other members from across the province, is helping to ensure that young people transitioning out of care are supported to build skills, secure employment, and stay connected to their community, culture, and identity.

Mr. Speaker, recently Amy-Louise played an integral role in developing the newly opened semi-independent living program at nîkikiskamik here in Regina. Mr. Speaker, by sharing her lived experience, she helped identify the need for the home, guided the planning, and played a key role in selecting the YWCA of Regina as the operator.

On behalf of our government, I want to thank Amy-Louise and all the members of the Regina Youth Advisory Team for your leadership and your contributions to your community, to providing improving outcomes for youth not only here in Regina but setting an example for youth right across this province. So I’d ask all members to join me in welcoming Amy-Louise to this, her Saskatchewan legislature.

And while I’m on my feet, Mr. Speaker, in the west gallery we are joined today by 21 grade 4 to 12 home-schooled students from rural Saskatoon, rural route 2, which I believe is north and somewhat east of Saskatoon, if memory serves me correct. They’re accompanied by their teacher Erin Kluthe, as well as parent chaperones Viv Pan, Karen and Mike Livingstone, Rina Fradette, Megan Peter, Darla MacDiarmid, and Carla Ransom.

So you know, to the students that are here today: welcome to this, your Legislative Assembly, and thank you for taking the time to come down today to visit us. And I hope you enjoy what you see today as part of democracy in action. And on behalf of everybody on the floor of this Legislative Assembly, would you please join me in welcoming these 21 students, home-schooled students from rural Saskatoon.
